Preview renders server-side per keystroke (no debouncing) straight into the visible article's heading and body.
  - **Site mode** — the 🖊️ on the banner opens a panel with the site **brand** (applied to the header live), a **theme** selector (swapping the theme stylesheet in place), **font** picks (heading/body/brand — stored as plain `:root` rows inside the custom CSS, referencing the base stylesheet's per-family font variables), a **site-wide custom CSS** field (injected into `<style id="pagerite-user">` in the live page head and swapped during fetch-navigation), the page's **banner design** selector (inherit / none / any design found on disk, inherited by children), the page's **banner HTML** field (supplementing the design, previewed into the real banner region, so you see exactly which banner you're editing) and the **structure tree**. Everything saves immediately as you edit — no save button, no edit mode.
 - Clicking a pen again closes the editor (without saving; a dirty preview reloads the page). The pens are `<button>`s wired up by `pagerite.js` — editing is an action, not a navigation.

 Media uploads everywhere use the image icon buttons (pasting into the editor works too). The article, banner and site-settings pens are shorthands that open the shell on the matching tab; once open, clicking a pen switches tabs (and retargets the editors to the current page) instead of closing/remounting. The close button in the tab bar closes the shell (Escape too); tabs have no close buttons of their own. Closing only HIDES the shell — the Vue app stays mounted, so page-editor state (unsaved text included) survives until a real page reload; saving there is explicit (Ctrl+S) and refreshes the page regions in place. Admin panels never reload the page.

+In-place page re-rendering shared by the banner/site/structure tabs lives in `swapdoc.js` (`runScripts`/`loadPlain`: fetch a page, swap the dynamic regions, replaceState). It also exports `dropPageCache`, which the editor tabs call after any save that can alter the rendered HTML of other pages (theme, headings, structure, banners, site brand/CSS, favicon). Dropping the cache while editing avoids re-fetching every page immediately; the public runtime re-preloads visible links once the editor panel closes.

 ## Saving behavior

-Everything saves immediately as you edit (brand/title/CSS debounced, slug on commit since it renames the path), theme change swaps the stylesheet in place, tree rows navigate in place without transitions when focused, and the front page is a root-only row whose empty slug is editable like any other.

Saves that can affect other pages drop the prefetch cache; the cache is rebuilt when the editor panel closes so navigation stays instant.

 Every non-empty list (and the root) ends with a non-draggable plus footer row (vuedraggable `#footer` slot): clicking it starts a new pending page at that level (its slug placeholder shows the slug derived live from the title being typed), and while dragging it is the list's "end of list" drop target. Committing a pending page PUTs it with empty markdown (creates an empty page that renders with its title — saving never deletes; deletion is the page editor's explicit choice: saving trimmed-empty text issues a REST DELETE), then switches to the page editor tab for the actual writing.

 It first probes `GET /auth/api/settings` to detect whether Paskia SSO is available, then `GET /_api/settings` to learn the current session's admin status. The same reverse proxy that gates `/_api` returns 401 for anonymous users, 403 for users without the admin permission, and 200 for admins. When Paskia is detected, a login link (anonymous) or profile link (logged in) is shown in the banner corner; both are plain `<a href="/auth/">` links (Paskia does not support being iframed, so we navigate normally), and a `pageshow` handler re-probes auth when history navigation restores a cached page. Admins also get the page/banner edit pens and a site-settings pen, plus a `modulepreload` warm-up of the editor bundle (the hashed asset is immutable, so it costs nothing). If no Paskia SSO is detected (dev/no proxy), editing is left open. Pages themselves render identically for everyone; the real gate is the auth proxy in front of all of `/_api`.

LeoVasanko	a5edc7b3b6	Fix crawler misclassification from /_a and orphan counts on visit scrub Two analytics corrections verified against the production capture: - pagerite.js suppressed pings with fr == '/_a', but fetch-navigation away from the analytics page had already GET-ed the target without the preload header; the orphaned pending hit then flushed to the crawler list, classifying a real user as a crawler. Navigations away from /_a now ping normally (the server rejects /_a as a target regardless, and admin noise is already handled by hide=1). - _remove_visit only reversed the visit's creation counts, leaving views/transitions from later pings behind as orphans on the graph with no matching row in the visitor table. An in-memory per-visit count log now tracks every count event, so an admin hide=1 scrub reverses the visit completely.	2026-08-24 20:18:13 +00:00
LeoVasanko	09ebc63690	Record response status per path; mark 404 trails red in the viewer Document GETs now stash their status (200/404) in a pending table, consumed by the matching ping: visits gain a per-path statuses map and crawler hits a status field. Trail links with a 404 status render in red with the status code in the tooltip, alongside the read time.	2026-08-24 19:43:23 +00:00
LeoVasanko	2868843028	Fix inverted client filter in admin hide ping The hide=1 branch kept the admin's own pending crawler hits (==) instead of discarding them (!=), so an admin's document GETs flushed to the crawler list 10s later while every other client's pending hits were wrongly dropped. This is why ordinary admin browsers showed up as crawlers.	2026-08-24 19:40:12 +00:00
LeoVasanko	6fcebaea3f	Transition map: svg-scaled fonts, border-clipped pill text, tight crop - Fonts scale with the svg instead of the --u constant-screen-size compensation (ResizeObserver machinery removed) - Larger node text (slug 19px, count 15px) - Pill labels no longer ellipsis-truncated: text is clipped at the pill border via per-node clipPaths; captions center when they fit and anchor left on overflow so the title's beginning survives; count lines stay centered - Bounding box crops to pill half extents plus the ribbon halo instead of the diagonal radius, removing the large top/bottom margins	2026-08-24 18:35:36 +00:00
LeoVasanko	4a48d08a19	Analytics layout: larger charts with natural-width cap, one-line totals - Charts grow to a larger intrinsic size (1052x174) and never upscale past it; centered with equal side margins above the cap, full width below, svg always within page bounds; overflow visible so wider fonts don't clip at the viewBox edge - Totals row aligns its left edge with the charts and shrinks (gap first, then font) via container units to always stay on one line	2026-08-24 18:21:58 +00:00
LeoVasanko	e3e29251ca	Transition map: cull invisible connectors, stable beads, lane labels - Cull connections whose thin middle would render below ~0.8px (MIN_WMID); drop external source/exit nodes whose connectors are all culled, while site page nodes always stay - Bead simulation persists across data reloads: emitters keyed per edge direction, beads tracked by progress, so unrelated count changes no longer reshuffle bead positions - Bead speed relative to span length: constant 1.5s traversal per edge - Top lane labeled with a house icon; all lane labels left-aligned just past the source pill (half height on near-vertical branch lanes), with guides running to the lane end so long slugs are never truncated	2026-08-24 17:58:02 +00:00

LeoVasanko	2de4717230	Fix week overlay alignment, in-plot ISO week legend, shorter charts - weeklySeries shifts overlaid weeks onto the current week's time axis so they overlay inside the plot instead of overflowing left; oldest weeks paint first, current week on top - Legend moved inside the visits chart's top right: current ISO week in accent, past weeks as a single muted "Week M" / "Week M–N" specimen - Past week curves use the muted color instead of faded accent - Chart height reduced ~30% (180 -> 126)	2026-08-24 17:03:49 +00:00
LeoVasanko	563e8fcaf2	Rework analytics chart scaling; self-contained SVG charts - Charts render as single SVGs with axis labels inside the viewBox, replacing the stretched plot + HTML overlay labels - Rolling ranges end at now, t0 aligned to UTC day; bucket size follows the window (6h up to 31 days) so "all" at its 30-day minimum renders identically to "month" - X labels always centered on their true position; no edge-align shifting - rangeWindow simplified to rolling spans ending at now - TransitionGraph "all" visual scale floored at the 30-day plot minimum	2026-08-24 12:31:25 +00:00
